Eases Communication with the Board/Makes Board Meetings Less Painful

Use cases for managing security issues, quantifying the financial impact of cyber risk, testing controls, and more include robust reporting features so that you can speak to the board and senior management more accurately and confidently about your organization’s security posture.

Streamlines Cyber Incident & Breach Response

The use case for cyber incident and breach response gives you the ability to document which IT assets are most critical to your operations, which makes it easier for SOC analysts to zero in on the incidents that matter most. Pe-built workflows are designed to accelerate breach response.
